Living his best time since he arrived in Botafogo, the left -wing full -back Coiabano consolidated as one of the main pieces of the team led by Renato Paiva this season. By acting more offensive, the player was fundamental in attack actions and has already played 21 games, with two goals marked and three assists. This performance placed it on the premier league club radar.

Recently, Brighton has formalized his third offer for the athlete. The proposal was around 9 million euros, the equivalent of about $ 57 million. However, the board of directors has chosen to refuse the assault. According to information issued by the newspaper “or Globo”, the club has no interest in negotiating the part for values ​​below 10 million euros.

Botafogo’s Board of Directors believes that Cuiabano can reach an even greater appreciation after the Super World Club. Therefore, the club sees the competition as a strategic showcase for the athlete and consequently delayed any negotiation until the tournament is completed. The presence of great opponents, such as Paris Saint-Germain and Atlético De Madrid, is seen as an opportunity for the international exhibition.

The debut of Alvinegro Carioca in the tournament is scheduled for next Sunday (15), at 23h (Brasilia time), against Seattle Sounders, in a match valid for the 1st round of group B. In addition to the Americans, the group also has the two European giants, promising high -level challenges along the group phase.

Internally, the club deals with Cuiabano as a precious resource in the cast. In fact, the team has already received surveys from another English team, Nottingham Forest, although so far no formal proposal has been presented. Botafogo planning also provides for the intake of expert players to strengthen the team for the dispute on the World Cup.

Finally, the player himself showed satisfaction with the environment in the club. In a recent statement, Cuiabano praised the work of the coach Artur Jorge, highlighting the importance of the technical committee in its evolution. However, the current scenario indicates that the athlete’s stay will depend on the appreciation he can earn during the international competition.
